ABSTRACT
Some of the countless government social services programs are those addressing and supporting low-income families, foster care, emancipated youths, and general relief payments for food and housing for the disadvantaged. Other services consist of property value assessment, property tax payment, requests for a birth certificate, marriage license, or a death certificate, as well as simply
registering to vote. Our citizens, from the time they are brought into this world and throughout their lives will require health-care services. Medical and mental health care, including public health issues, will always be of the highest concern to all levels of government, involving all ages. It may seem obvious that public safety services are at the top of the list along with health care. e security of our homeland, border and port protection, law enforcement, and protection of our loved ones is an area where government visibly plays a significant role.
